Abstract
A new critical reading of Historia Augusta’s Vita Pertinacis bears out the importance of the codex Palatinus Latinus 899 from the Vatican Apostolic Library for the establishment of the Historia Augusta text and its tradition. This article proposes some corrections to the text and state new considerations on this complex historical problem. Finally, we make some remarks on the additions to the text made by Petrarca’s hand.
